A Secret Divulged.

The editor Of one of our exchanges
gets at the delinquent subscription bus
mess among the newspapers in the most
expressive and plainest manner we have
seen for some time. In comparing the
newspaper business with that of the
farmer he says: Suppose the farmer
raised one thousand bushels of wheat,
and his neighbor should buy bushel,
and the price was small matter Of two
dollars or less, and says: Il will hand
you tie amount in few days" As the
farmer does not want to appear small
te says all right, and the man leaves
with the tushel of wheat; another one
comes in the same way, and still an
other, until the whole thousand bush
els of wheat was trusted out to one
thousand different persons and not one
Of the purchasers concerns himself
about it for 1t Ia very small amount he
owes the farmer and CT course that does
not help him any. He does not realize
that the farmer has frittered away his
whole crop of wheat and that its value
Is due in a thousand little tributes, and
that he is seriously embarrassed in his
business because his debtors treat it as
small matter. But if all would pay
him promptly, which they could do as
we'll as not, it would be large amount
TO the farmer, and would enable him t
carry on his business without difficulty
The above comparison is too true O
the difficulty with which the newspape
man has to contend.

last Friday in the case of the State VS..
J. +. Cloughly which was tried in the
September term Of the Audubon district

Judge Carson WIS that defendant pay q
fine of $500 for contempt of court, $4N
attorneys fees, and costs of action; that
the drug store be closed for a per
iod Of one year; that a permanent in
junction issue; and that in default OF
payment of fines, fees and costs, de-
fcndant stand committed to the county
Jail for $50 days. Sheriff Mallory clos
ed the doors and took possession of the

barrels and several smaller receptacles
containing liquors, which were trans
ferred to the sherilf's Office in the court
house.
DR.. Cloughly paid the fines, fees and
costs, aggregating $ll9S.65, and making
proper showing to the judge, that au
gust parsonage has shown that the laws

The Home First.

In these days of isms when all man
ner Of men seem to be seeking al
manner of means to solve the socia
problem there is one thing that the rea
lovers of the race-the true men and
women Of the land--should not forget
the home. Any reform that seeks &c
dismantle the home; whether it is in thu
form of cooperation or any other KIND
of socialism is the worst and most dan
gerous kind of anarchy. Let the home
stand first before all other things. Ne
matter how high your ambition may
transcend its duties, no matter how fal
your influence or your talents may
reach beyond its doors, before every
thing else build up true home. BE not
its slave: be its minister. Let il not bC
enough that ii is swept and garnished
that its feed is delicious and plenty, but
feed the love that is in it, feed the truth
in II. feed thought and inspiration, feed
MI charity and gentleness in it. Then
frOM its walls shall come forth the true
woman and the true man who shall to
Tether rule and bless the land Counci,

TIE appointment of Lucius Quint&S
Casius Lamar to the supreme judceShip
is the beldest maneuycr the president
has yet made His appointment as sec
rotary of the interior was not satiSfac
tory to the public, but was net antagO-
nized. The conservative attitude of
the people in this instance encouraged
the president to this latter and bOlder
action of appointing to one of the
highest positions of honor and import
ance that it is within his power to give,
a man who resigned his seat III congress
in order to devote his time and energies
to the cause of which jeff Davis was
chief. Lamar and Davis were in SYM
pathy and in conspiracy against the
government. The president can not
honor Davis--that has been placed be-
yond his daring but he can signify his
sympathy by giving the place of honor
to one of his chief assistants. This fact
alone should disqualify him for place
of such significant prerGrment, and adj
monish the candidate himself to m0der-
ate aspirations. But, If us man, ho
were acceptable to the people, his qnal-
itications as a lawyer are too limited
for position Of such responsibilities
seat amongthosew who construe and inter
pref the bulwark government. The OPP
position to him that's developing through
the south is mainly upon the ground Of
his lack of legal learning, while that in
the north and at Washington is because
of his rebel record and remaining rebel
tendencies. His age is such as almost
disqualifes him and if he is successful
in his present effort he will soon be re-
tired pensioner upon the government
he sought to destroy. The power of the
senate should intervene to thwart the
ill-conceived intention of the president
to place a poor lawyer and rebel in
his dotage on the supreme bench.
